First topic message reminder :

JJ,

Sorry about lack of a promo for last show, I was on holiday and took delivery of our puppy, truth be told, I needed a break from life.

Will sort something with Marky.

You should definitely bring back the grown up Scorpion. He wears a suit and goes by the name of Bull Scorpio. Maybe he's a manager for a new character you could create.

Changed it. Would have to be called Bull Scorpio.

Really great show, I'm thoroughly enjoying all the storylines

by Bentyf1 Wed 24 May 2023, 2:50 pm

Warm greetings to all.

Whatever happened to people like Cable?

by **JJJohnson** Wed 24 May 2023, 4:43 pm

No idea mate

Cable was a really good promoer and I was a big fan of the Team Japan characters. Plus the dude literally hade a voice of silk on those podcasts

AberdeenSteve was another really good promoer with Jackson Black

by DP Wed 24 May 2023, 5:46 pm

Marky was Cable wasn't he?

Good promoer was Sweety. Genesis original

by DP Wed 24 May 2023, 8:00 pm

I seem to remember the guy that had Cobra as his character ended up becoming a bit of a big deal in some proper serious e-feds... Nothing like us rag tag bunch of divas!

by Marky Wed 24 May 2023, 8:18 pm

I remember when Max Adamson joined one of those e-feds many years ago. Every promo was like a dissertation length monologue, with very little mention of the matches Laugh

Still nearly won a title with a tactic I like to call "quantity over quality", just replying to everyone in the multi man match I was in, and constantly trying to get the last word in the back and forth.

Not for me, nowhere near as fun as the 6's.

by DP Wed 24 May 2023, 9:02 pm

Pretty certain I spent more time promoing during my last year of Uni when I should have been writing a dissertation!

by **JJJohnson** Wed 24 May 2023, 9:06 pm

Yeah I did some of those big-time e-feds and to be honest, they weren't all that. I did enjoy some of the shows themselves and they had some talented writers but the whole 5000 word promos every time was ridiculous. All in different fonts and about character's trains of thought etc.

I probably am biased but I believe what we have created since 2008 has been pretty special. And at times I don't think any company (believe or make believe) could have topped what we have come up with.

As I sat, staring out of the window of my New York City apartment, the rain droplets collecting and dancing into each other with the grace of the Bolshoi Ballet, a whole range of thoughts came into my head. Why am I so pretentious? What do I have to gain from typing like this? And are these font options necessary to promote a wrestling match? Is this why Debbie left me?

by **JJJohnson** Thu 25 May 2023, 8:17 am

It’s uncanny. Did you win world titles in those efeds as well? Laugh

by **JJJohnson** Thu 25 May 2023, 8:52 am

Question of the day (or rather question from me)

Obviously our numbers are fairly limited. Returns from old faces are still likely and I’ve talked to a few but chances of attracting new faces is fairly unlikely on this board due to a lack of interest on the wrestling section.

If down the line I introduced some characters to flesh out the roster, would you be upset to lose to someone who doesn’t have a handler? Or actively promos?

This isn’t something set in stone, I’m just curious how people feel. It is something I did during the lockdown months and I enjoyed the stories I was able to create but there was only like 4-5 active guys on the roster at best

Whilst promos should be rewarded I said from the off I want everyone to enjoy this and the storylines etc. I don’t want anyone to take it too seriously.

Anyways let me know what you all think.

by Marky Thu 25 May 2023, 8:52 am

I think people would be annoyed if someone who didn't promo was a Champion ahead of them, but I doubt anyone would be too precious about the occasional win for storyline development

by **JJJohnson** Thu 25 May 2023, 8:58 am

Yeah I get that absolutely. I don’t think having someone without a handler holding a title would be a good look.

But for example: Say Rex was involved in a storyline for a month or so with Jackson Black and they traded a few wins/losses for storyline purposes (obviously would have to make sense). Would that spoil your enjoyment of the shows?

Like I said this is hypothetical and I’m interested in your views.

by Marky Thu 25 May 2023, 9:01 am

I don't know, is the honest answer. Probably not, I think it depends on the context

by Marky Thu 25 May 2023, 9:02 am

A cheap loss via cheating or interference is different to a clean loss

Morning all.

No problems in the slightest, Steve. I don't think it's that deep, I can't imagine why anyone would be annoyed. If anything, it helps progress storylines that we all enjoy reading so it's calm

by **JJJohnson** Thu 25 May 2023, 9:09 am

Like I said, it’s not something I’m looking at in the short term. I was just curious if people’s viewpoints.

Right now I like the set of guys we have and I really think there are a lot of great possibilities going forward.

Do any of you have a problem with introducing old faces for storyline purposes to get a few Ws on the board. For example the Liam Wood storyline thus far has seen him take on a lot of ex EWF guys who obviously don’t promo anymore.

My thinking behind that is if you watch WWE or AEW on the weekly it isn’t just the big stars going up against each other all the time. I don’t just want to do the same matches every week or pointless overloaded tag matches. I just want to try and create a sense of realism

by Bentyf1 Thu 25 May 2023, 10:02 am

No problem at all Steve, Losses too, no problem.

Except he has to lose it to Henchman, clean, inside 18 seconds

by **JJJohnson** Thu 25 May 2023, 10:19 am

I was thinking more Hooligan to be honest as he had credentials and I believe at least one PPV win over Max Adamson Laugh

And yes Ed I really don’t really know how to feel about Sunday. I think on paper it’s such a winnable game but this is the Ev so we’ll probably be 0-4 down inside 20 minutes

by DP Thu 25 May 2023, 11:30 am

I'm happy for you to do what you think is best JJ. No fantasy game bitch fits from me!

Like Marky said, it's all about the context of it.

by **x12x** Thu 25 May 2023, 12:34 pm

for QOTD about losing to characters who are making up numbers...if it makes sense then it makes sense and characters just winning can get boring...look at Cena, Reigns and Goldberg. A loss can at times, move a storyline much further than a win.

I'm promoing based on a Japanese gangster who is based on a PS1 game character. Who used to tag team with a guy who was firstly (and continuously) known for his flatulence. Sometimes alongside a failed Hollywood star that went from being religious to an arse hole (actually he was always an arse hole). Sandwiched between a guy whose calling card was dots interspersed in his promos and playing chess with a puppet.

Meanwhile back in reality, I have a house move going on, a big milestone birthday next year that I'm planning and dreading (more dreading). Real life Japanese clients that seem to actually work for the Yakuza with their passive aggressive emails.....potentially knowing Oko in that life imitating art vibe.

No JJ, you do what you need to do to make it work for you. I'm just here to make up the numbers.

I am well, thriving in life, sometimes. (my mens mental health is at an all time high)

I am however not a mod, that was merely alterations made to my account by one Mr Chris Wilkerson that I have been too lazy to change.

Absolutely not.
